Weather has always been a major impact on our moods. I have no doubt that our primate ancestors liked a rainy day about as much as we do. Maybe it was a good excuse to hang out in a cave or anywhere that would keep you dry, but it is no good for exploring!
Cut to today where I am exploring in the rain, and I can’t help but feel the rain is interfering with my day. I tend to do that a lot with things that are not at first glance what I am looking for. Well that does it, there is rain, so the day is ruined! A healthier approach would be I have this plan for a rainy day and this plan for a sunny one. There is no such thing as a ruined day until you determine it to be ruined!
You never truly lose until you give up, and you never have a ruined day until you give up having a good one! Mindset is everything!
I tell my stepson a lot that if he believes he will have a good day, that he will have one. I do not say that to him because I want to lie or because it sounds good, I say it because I have proven to myself that it is true. You have the day you have made your mind to have! Abraham Lincoln has a great quote “Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.” This is also written about in numerous books including “The Secret”.
I would like to thank you for riding with me!
